I understand why you feel bad but it sounds like it was an accident and it's not like he attacked the boy. My guess is that it took Dexter by surprise too since he had no intention of making contact. He probably felt bad about it too. Roxie doesn't care much for fast moving small children and will bark and bark at them. Not that she doesn't like kids but gets nervous and overly excited when they are screaming and running around. Then again she's not used to it because I don't have small kids in my house very much. Maybe you can give an I'm sorry plz forgive me card from Dexter to the little boy. That might help them to mend any if any hard feelings and will help you feel better too!
